Publisher's Synopsis
No one likes getting the short end of the stick.
For Michael Wexler, it has become a way of life. While many of his dreams keep getting crushed, he is hoping some good luck will intervene. Life is pushing him to face the struggles of growing up, but he's not quite ready to turn that corner.
Michael not only looks for trouble, but finds it in every direction. Whether it's picking a fight to overcome his cowardice, getting pinched for egging the neighbor's house, pulling a fast move during truth or dare, or squeezing a favor from a vodka-drinking babysitter, the result is anything but typical.
Michael is also getting more into hard rock music this time around. He has dreams of starting a band, but deals with dissension from the other musicians. While on vacation, he gets infatuated with a girl wearing a Van Halen t-shirt. If only his grandparents weren't around to mess up his plans.
My Life Still Sucks features the colorful characters from My Life Sucks while introducing some new faces that either animate or complicate Michael's already tumultuous life.
Full of snarky humor, difficult life lessons, and provocative insights, My Life Still Sucks is the unrestrained journey of a 12-year-old refusing to play by the rules. For anyone wanting to revisit the struggles of pre-adolescence, but with some comic relief this time around!
My Life Still Sucks is like combining Malcolm in the Middle with the politically incorrectness of The Bad News Bears.
